I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong!
To crash the critic saying "is it right or is it wrong?"
If only fame had an IV, baby could I bear!
Being away from you, I found the vein, put it in here!
I live for the applause, applause, applause!
I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me!
The applause, applause, applause!
Give me that thing that I love! (I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch! (Make it real loud!)
Give me that thing that I love! (I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch! (Make it real loud!)
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch!
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch!
I've overheard your theory: nostalgia's for geeks!
I guess sir if you say so some of us just like to read!
One second I'm a Koons then suddenly the Koons is me!
Pop c**ture was in art: now art's in pop c**ture in me!
I live for the applause, applause, applause!
I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me!
The applause, applause, applause!
Give me that thing that I love! (I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch! (Make it real loud!)
Give me that thing that I love! (I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch! (Make it real loud!)
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch!
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch!
